    And if they make it available in Braille?

  7. What does it mean? on RIAA's Request For Appeal Denied In Thomas Case · · Score: 1

    Sorry to ask such an obvious question, but what does "making files available" mean? Say I lose my laptop or mp3 player and it is used by even a single user, or say they dump in on Limewire.... What then? What would happen if I lost in the US? (Canuck here)

    I got a $25.00 gift card for a local grocery store, and was surprised by the gesture. We're hurting right now and to think they gave that to 380 employees was impressive to me. Go google! (am I supposed to use a G for google?)

  12. Re:What? Did you get that gem? on Warner Music Pulls Videos Off YouTube · · Score: 1

    "We simply cannot accept terms that fail to appropriately and fairly compensate recording artists, songwriters, labels and publishers" I thought it was funny that they listed themselves last on that list..... because everyone knows that it's the artists and songwriters that they are REALLY concerned about.

  15. Re:I hope this helps this problem on FTC Kills Scareware Scam That Duped Over 1M Users · · Score: 1

    We have users that receive warning messages that tell them that this program is possibly a virus, and ask them if they would like to run the program anyway. Many users that do not know any better will run the program even though the warning is telling them this may not be a good idea. Helping the user understand what the legitimate warnings are on the system tends to reduce the problem.

    I deal with this on a daily basis. Keep in mind (I'm using Antivirus 2008 as an example) the client see a big old "Spyware detected on your computer, click here to download Antinvirus 2008 to remove!!!" You had me at hello. sigh I HATE taking these peoples money. Hell, most pc's don't even run right after disinfection.... you might as well reload. I don't even see the marketing in these exploits. Is it just plain malicious, or is there actually money to be made here?

    HOAs do this already. Frequently, the HOA is not run by the 'homeowners', but rather a faceless company that provides that same functionality.

    Sounds to me like we eventually come full circle then. Am I wrong?

    Get real. Security all comes down to the person who's task it is to implement it.

    Thank you! That needed to be said. My question would be if their systems were secured within the military infrastructure, or if it was contracted out. If the former, they need better training. The latter, well..... I guess there's always Gitmo.
